Why does the "latest posts" things stop working so often?

[musefan]

That thing up there to the left a bit. Latest news, jokes, etc. More often than not it just says "no messages found". This has bugged me for a while as I always like to keep up with the jokes posted in here. So, why it always breaking? I assume there is an acceptable reason for it otherwise I expect it would have been fixed long ago.

You know what. After all these months I have literally just this second realised the problem is related to the posts on the currently displayed list :doh:

Tell the people who can fix it: Bugs and Suggestions[^]

Ok, just did. I would have posted in there originally, but it feels like it's been a problem for so long that I figured somebody would just have a logically reason for why it happens and it wasn't considered a bug.

Well that's annoying! I'd never noticed the 'latest posts' thing, until you said.... And now I keep trying it - and getting "no messages found". This is functionality that I didn't know about until 5 minutes ago. And it's now a matter of loaf and death, Gromit. I need it fixing. :-D
